Captain of the Combo

Modern Mono-White Soldiers Tribal

FrostyK


Sideboard


This is a mono-white soldier tribal deck. While having both four Captain of the Watch and three Odric, Master Tactician would normally be out of the question for mono-white (often having to work with a fairly low mana curve), Preeminent Captain brings out both of the game-enders at no cost. Since getting Captain of the Watch onto the field hinges upon Preeminent Captain, I have included means of defending him from removal; Swiftfoot Boots can give him Hexproof (and get him attacking early with Haste if the timing is right!). Having a Cloudshift in my hand a) protects the Preeminent Captain long enough to get one of my game enders onto the field, and b) to protect those game enders when they get out there. Cloudshift, when used to defend Captain of the Watch from a removal, burn, or bounce spell will also bring another three 1/1 soldier tokens onto the field by virtue of it re-entering the battlefield (who also gain +1/+1 and vigilance immediately).

I prefer to play mono-white to avoid mana colour starvation, but this leaves me without draw ability, mana acceleration, (relatively cheap) control, burn, or removal. Righteousness defends against big creatures while Oblivion Ring does that as well as neutralizing "keystone" creatures under my opponent's control.

I'm keeping an eye out for Field Marshal, but can anyone make more suggestions? Much appreciated!
